What are possible meanings for dreams of raccoons?
Raccoons are commonly associated with scavenging and sneakiness, behaviors they exhibit. The black band of fur around their eyes makes them look like bandits. The associations extend to include ideas like struggle for survival, going it alone, getting back to nature, and living simply.
However, associations based on personal experience are fair game for dreams to use to create symbolism. Such as in the dream a man had about being in a tent and suddenly the ground gives way and he tumbles down hundreds of feet into a raging river. He washes up on a rock outcropping and sees a raccoon that’s trapped and can’t swim across the river. He tries to help it, and it attacks him and shreds his tent.
To understand the dream, you have to know about an experience he had as a child. While camping, he fed the raccoons at the campsite and his parents admonished him for it. It created an association in his mind between raccoons and being punished for trying to be helpful. A recent incident has made him feel that way. It feels like a personal attack, and it shreds the flimsy protection he has around his ego, symbolized by the tent. It puts his emotions in turmoil, symbolized as the raging river. Ultimately, the dream raises the point that he shouldn’t be so sensitive.
This example points out why no dream dictionary can cover all possibilities for symbolism, and you should always think of personal associations for your dream symbols.

Will Smith is the only one who wants to sit with me
So I just had the longest dream I’ve had in awhile... and I’m still processing it
I was graduating High School, and while graduating we had to go through these dangerous trials to prove our skill. Somehow, I won all the trials and came first place. As a reward, I got a sparkly Green Party hat... I was incredibly happy, so I decided to host a party. My mom thought it was a bad idea, but I invited everyone I knew, including all of my exes. However, my “exes” weren't really people; they were characters I used to obsess over in media. Master Chief (Halo) was there, and so was the Hulk, and Mr Strickler (Trolls of Arcadia), and Venom, and Rocket Raccoon, and so many others. There were normal people there too, but obviously the characters drew more focus for me.
The Characters didn't seem to like eachother, so they separated into two groups and stayed on opposite sides of the room in order to avoid each other. (Pretty much separating into good and bad). This meant no one sat at the main table with me besides one friend and my mom. Suddenly though, Will Smith came in and sat by me. I was so happy someone actually sat by me, and he was being super nice and congratulating me for graduating.
I gained some courage and decided to yell at all the characters around the room, telling them that they were being rude and that this was a celebration not a fight..... then magically everyone started getting along, and the rest of the party was wonderful, but I still stuck close to Will Smith because he was the nicest one there...
My big question is why my brain gave Will Smith more attention than Master Chief, since I haven’t seen anything with him since YouTube Rewind... however, I’m also curious what the big picture of this dream was; like am I stressed about only having one good friend..
...or am worried about the fact I’ve never dated anyone before so my only “exes” are old character crushes.....

Nudes gone wrong followed by Tom Nook Nipple Discourse
The other night, I dreamed that I was taking nudes for a friend, but in a bathtub with the shower going and filling it up. I dropped my phone in the bathtub and felt my body fall asleep like a foot would, and my body locked up (I think this happened IRL too as it happened in the dream.. hasn't happened since). I struggled to remove the phone from the water.
It then cut to me on Twitter, watching people argue because someone drew Tom Nook with Aztec nipples and cowbell piercings, like this:

I got on Twitter, eyes filled with tears of rage, saying "LEAVE HIM ALONE!! HE'S JUST A RACCOON... THAT'S WHAT THEIR NIPPLES ARE SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE!!"

Dream about a raccoon
I had a pet raccoon which was very small for a raccoon. I was in a house I did not know, and there was purple gunk on the stairs, someone told me you have to make the raccoon eat it for an unknown reason. The raccoon was aggressive towards me in several parts of the dream. I was in some outdoor area in one part and I was starting to climb up some rocks but I could not get up it at all as it was too steep and I was trying not to loose the raccoon, I remember knowing I had to get up the rock in desperation.

Mysterious dream about an old “friend”
Hey Reddit, I need help translating this dream. It was the most vivid dream I have ever had in my life.
I was driving with my dad in a red truck that we have never owned and we stopped at this white country house. I think we stopped to get gas or something but anyways - I went inside and there was only girls with familiar faces in there and out of all of them I saw someone I thought I had finally gotten off my mind, let’s call her “h”. H was someone whom I was extremely close to a few years ago, someone who I told everything to, but we never dated (although I did have feelings and this was ultimately what ruined our friendship).
But moving back to the dream world, I spoke to her for awhile until I finally went back outside to find my dad trying to shoo off a raccoon. Then I went to chase it off and a skunk started chasing me shortly after. While running, I looked up on google how to evade skunks and I read that you need to run far and get very high up - and push comes to shove and I am tumbling down a very yellow rocky mountain until I was knocked out.
Then, I woke up at my job. For some reason I was hiding balled up notes in a freezer compartment there, until I was called to go see my manager. Apparently they wanted to promote me to be a security person for the job - to make sure customers did not steal anything and to help get authorities to the store if the need arises. I ultimately said no and I went back to my department and I reopened the freezer compartment and I picked up and read a few of the notes. I don’t remember what they said, but I recognized that the notes had a “-(h)” on each of them, and I realized that they were from the girl. Then I woke up.
So ummm.. what??
